Agree. No reason to put a RINO on the ticket while the party is transforming into a true conservative/traditionalist party.
How are y'all going to win a general election with this kind of cash?
with millions and millions in legal fees still to be outstanding.
and a party whose leadership is in total disarray....
Republican Party reveals it's had the worst fundraising year in a decade
The political party race for cash is leaving the GOP in the dust.
The Guardian's Hugo Lowell noted new numbers released by the Federal Elections Commission show the Republican National Committee has just $8 million cash on hand at the end of 2023 after the lowest fundraising year since 2013, which was the year after Republicans lost a presidential race.
Donald
Trump has also had money problems
after spending $50 million on lawyers and legal fees. More than half,
$27 million, was spent in the last six months of 2023.
Just a few months ago, the
Washington Post reported that there was just $9.1 million in the bank as of Oct. 30, 2023. At that time, it was the lowest the FEC showed for the party since Feb. 2015, and it dropped further in the remaining months of the year.
All of this comes as three state Republican Parties are in disarray.
The Michigan Republican Party is in a battle of the chairs, with two different people claiming to be the group's president.
The Oklahoma Republican Party voted to censure Sen. James Lankford after it was reported he was working with Democrats to craft a bipartisan immigration bill, though the chair of that party claimed that it was invalid because the
vice chair went "rogue."
The chairs of both Florida and Arizona have been forced out in recent months. In Florida, they
ousted the chair after rape allegations. In Arizona,
the chair resigned amid a scandal in which he was recorded by Kari Lake as he encouraged her to drop out of the race.
